Board Performance Evaluation

Sercomm, in alignment with the 'Corporate Governance Best Practice Principles for TWSE/TPEx Listed Companies,' has implemented a 'Board Self-Evaluation Procedure' to enhance the efficiency and functionality of its Board of Directors. This procedure mandates annual internal self-assessments and at least one external professional evaluation every three years to gauge the Board's effectiveness. The evaluation covers the Board as a whole, individual directors, and all functional committees. The findings from these assessments not only inform the selection and nomination of directors but are also transparently reported in the annual report, which details the execution and methodology of the performance evaluations. This approach ensures continuous improvement and accountability within the Board's operations.
